Previous studies indicate that the southward migration through Oregon lasts about two months (Herzing and Mate 1984). However, 90% of the whales migrated past Yaquina Head between December 19 and January 23. The northward migration through Oregon is divided in two phases. Phase A, which comprises adults without calves, begins during the last week of February with a peak in mid-March.
Watch for whales from Neahkahnie Mountain on the Oregon Coast. Oregonâs whale watching season peaks twice a year: during winter (mid-Decemberâmid-January) and spring (late FebruaryâMay). Thatâs when as many as 20,000 gray whales migrate between the icy seas of Alaska and their breeding lagoons in Baja California, Mexico.
